Unless your company has an agreement with AA for a match, I suspect your chances for this are near 0.

For my own part, I did ring the AAdvantage general member line and they told me that they only do the challenges -- although the person I talked to was clearly reading a script and didn't know what a United 1K was.

If you have a positive (or negative, I guess!) recent experience as a UA 1K, I would love to hear about it and get some tips.
